Skin-like Tissue Developed from Human Embryonic Stem Cells [NEWS] Dental and tissue engineering researchers at Tufts university School of Dental Medicine and the Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences at Tufts have harnessed the pluripotency of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) to generate complex, multilayer tissues that mimic human skin and the oral mucosa (the moist tissue that lines the inside of the mouth). The proof-of-concept study is published online in advance of print in Tissue Engineering Part A. … LifeSciencesWorld.comWeak Link: Fossil Darwinius Has Its 15 Minutes On May 19 the world met a most unlikely celebrity: the fossilized carcass of a housecat-size primate that lived 47 million years ago in a rain forest in what is now Germany. The specimen, a juvenile female, represents a genus and species new to science, Darwinius masillae, although the media-savvy researchers who unveiled her were quick to give her a user-friendly nickname, Ida. And in an elaborate public-relations campaign, in which the release of a Web site, a book and a documentary on the History Channel were timed to coincide with the publication of the scientific paper describing her in PLoS ONE, Ida’s significance was described in no uncertain terms as the missing link between us humans and our primate kin. In news reports, team members called her “the eighth wonder of the world,” “the Holy Grail,” and “a Rosetta Stone.”The orchestration paid off, as Ida graced the front page of countless newspapers and made appearances on the morning (an Scientific AmericanPublic invited to shape `Science Chicago` bioethics discussion The Museum of Science and Industry's 'Science Chicago' project is inviting suggestions to help steer the direction of an upcoming panel discussion on bioethics. topix.netStarve A Fever, Feed A Cold, Don`t Be Stressed Whether it's getting a cold during exam time or feeling run-down after a big meeting, we've all experienced feeling sick following a particularly stressful time at work or school. Is this merely coincidence, or is it possible that stress can actually make us sick? In a new report in Perspectives on Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, psychologist Janice K. Medical News TodayEthiopian government celebrates rinderpest eradication (Tufts university, Health Sciences) A menace to the African cattle population for more than a century, the World Organization for Animal Health has declared rinderpest eradicated in Ethiopia. Ethiopia, which grappled with the cattle-killing disease that threatened its food supply and its economy for decades, is celebrating the eradication on Saturday, July 25, 2009.

The finding, published online in the prestigious journal Science, has major implications for the development of new and more effective vaccines. Medical News TodayFighting disease atom by atom (Rice University) Researchers at Rice university and their international colleagues have for the first time described the atomic structure of the protein shell that carries the genetic code of hepatitis E (HEV). Their findings, published in the Proceedings of the national academy of Sciences, could mean that new ways to stop the virus may come in the not-too-distant future. Eurekalert.orgA child`s IQ can be affected by mother`s exposure to urban air pollutants (NIH/National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences) A mother's exposure to urban air pollutants known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) can adversely affect a child's intelligence quotient or IQ, a study reports. PAHs are chemicals released into the air from the burning of coal, diesel, oil and gas, or other organic substances such as tobacco. In urban areas motor vehicles are a major source of PAHs.
